91 chars

Generation

John 1:1 states, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." This verse introduces Jesus Christ as the eternal "Word" (Logos) who existed before creation, was in relationship with God the Father, and is fully divine in nature. John uses this profound opening to establish Christ's preexistence and deity before describing His role in creation and incarnation.
